Explanation

Calculation basis: the recorded grams-per-US-cup value.

Lard uses a recorded reference of 205 grams per US cup in this dataset. Confidence: medium. Source basis: typical kitchen chart (1 cup ≈ 205g)

Evidence status: reference-recorded. The source note is recorded; this does not certify every preparation or measurement condition. Temperature and physical state affect pourability and volume, so softened, melted, and solid forms should not be treated as interchangeable.

Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this use a US cup?

Yes. The factor is tied to the US cup definition (236.588 mL), not a metric cup.

Does temperature or physical state change the result for Lard?

Lard keeps one liquid-state reference basis here, but the result assumes the ingredient is melted or fully liquid when measured. Solid pieces, scooped chunks, or semi-solid fills do not behave the same way in a cup.
